Topeka statehouse park bill stalls over county funding
A general appropriation bill in the Kansas legislature includes a $5,000 item for statehouse grounds improvements. Shawnee County must subscribe and deposit an equal amount to unlock the funding. The push aims to plant a public garden around the capitol square, with Topeka backing the effort amid a broader miscellanous appropriation discussion totaling about $90,000.
